DNA double strand breaks (DSBs) 1 may be the most disruptive form of DNA damage. If left unrepaired, they lead to broken chromosomes and cell death. If repaired improperly, they …
Human X‐box binding protein‐1 (XBP1) is an alternatively spliced transcription factor that participates in the unfolded protein response (UPR), a stress‐signaling pathway that allows …

In mammalian cells, double-strand break repair and V (D) J recombination require DNA- dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK), a serine/threonine kinase that is activated by DNA …
